Hans Hassle to speak at webinar on vertical farming

Vertical Farming is a concept that argues that it is economically and environmentally viable to cultivate plant or animal life within skyscrapers or high rise buildings. With 60% of the world's rising population now living in urban areas, the demand to produce food efficiently and in an environmentally friendly manner has never been greater.

Hans Hassle will speak at a webinar on February 28 together with Dr. Dickson Despommier on this subject.
